Failed turn signals

Just took delivery of an '03 base Boxster. 1 week in, the turn signals quit working. Stalk moves, no lights. Hazard switch will not depress.
Also, where can I find a chart for the fuses?
Thanks

hazard lights are also turn signal. I would address the hazard switch problem first. Fairly simple to replace. With cluster cover removed it just snaps in and out. Quite possibly the hazard switch is causing the turn signal problem.

Mine has a folded fuse chart in the fuse box in the drivers footwell.

Found the problem with the turn signals. Hazard switch was stuck. Seems to be okay now. Next problem- front trunk won't open. Worked fine upon delivery, had it open half a dozen times, now won't open. How do I get in there?

Haha Starter!

Mel, I think Starter meant to do a search for "emergency frunk release" You'll find lots of posts on the subject.

Good luck.
